8 E Galena Blvd, Aurora, IL 60506
Join Calvin Evans, Chris Trani and host Tim Benker for a night of big laughs.
When it comes to comedy, Chicago is a driving force. The Windy City area has produced some of the biggest names in improv, sketch and stand-up comedy in the country. So we’ve tapped into the talent pool of professional stand-ups that call Chicagoland home when they’re not touring the nation doing what they do best: making people laugh.
Welcome to the Copley Comedy Series. On select Saturday nights through November 2026, amazingly talented professional stand-ups take the stage in the intimate 165-seat Copley Theatre. From Zanies, the Improv and Chicago Theatre to the Fillmore, Symphony Hall, HBO and Nexflix, these seasoned stand ups are coming to Aurora intent on showing you a good time – interpret that as you will.
There’s no drink minimum. Come early and hang out in the very cool Copley Bar and just have some fun.
